Then feel free to change it. You have our blessings. I hereby encourage 
you to fork a 100% Free Software version of Ubuntu. Me, I want my nVidia 
card to work. I want all the bells and whistles. Call me a sell out, I 
really don't care.

Why I remember when ASCII graphics was big and "Hunt The Wumpus" all the 
rage. Now, THAT is a 100% free install. Or, does ASCII text have a 
proprietary element to it too? <cackles>

Me, I want ALL the shaders, GLX textures, framebuffers, memory swapping, 
half_float_pixels, etc. turned on when I blast my enemy with a grenade 
launcher and see the effects of same, with dripping alien body parts 
smeared oozing down a nearby wall. Sure, I'm selling my soul to nVidia, 
but I am one happy sell-out. And, no one thought the war against the 
arachnids of Klendathu could be won either. Ric
